Honey From the People’s Republic of

of Circumvention of the Antidumping

Background
On June 21, 2012, the Department
published the affirmative Preliminary
Determination of circumvention of the
antidumping Order on honey from the
PRC. The Department did not receive
any comments from interested parties
on this determination.
Changes Since the Preliminary
Determination
We have not made any changes to the
Preliminary Determination.
Scope of the Order
The products covered by the order are
natural honey, artificial honey
containing more than 50 percent natural
honey by weight, preparations of natural
honey containing more than 50 percent
natural honey by weight and flavored
honey. The subject merchandise
includes all grades and colors of honey
whether in liquid, creamed, comb, cut
comb, or chunk form, and whether
packaged for retail or in bulk form.
The merchandise subject to the order
is currently classifiable under
1 See
Honey from the People’s Republic of China:
Affirmative Preliminary Determination of
Circumvention of the Antidumping Duty Order, 77
FR 37378 (June 21, 2012) (‘‘Preliminary
Determination’’).
2 See Notice of Amended Final Determination of
Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping
Duty Order; Honey From the People’s Republic of
China, 66 FR 63670 (December 10, 2001) (‘‘Order’’).

0409.00.0056, and 0409.00.0065 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (‘‘HTSUS’’). Although the
HTSUS subheadings are provided for
convenience and customs purposes, the
Department’s written description of the
merchandise under order is dispositive.
Merchandise Subject to the
Anticircumvention Inquiry
The merchandise subject to the
anticircumvention inquiry are blends of
honey and rice syrup, regardless of the
percentage of honey they contain, from
the PRC.
International Trade Commission
Notification
In accordance with section 781(d) of
the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘the
Act’’), we notified the International
Trade Commission (‘‘ITC’’) of the
proposed inclusion of blends of honey
and rice syrup in the antidumping duty
order on honey from the PRC.3 The ITC
determined that consultations were not
necessary.4
Final Affirmative Determination of
Circumvention
As there is no basis for the
Department to reconsider its decision,
we continue to find that blends of honey
and rice syrup are later-developed
merchandise. As explained in the
Preliminary Determination, the
evidence on the record demonstrates
that blends of honey and rice syrup
were not commercially available at the
time that the investigation was initiated
and these blends are materially different
from the merchandise under
consideration at the time of the
investigation and, in particular,
different from the honey blends
specifically excluded under the Order.
Additionally, all honey rice syrup
blends, regardless of the percentage of
honey they contain, meet the criteria
under sections 781(d)(1)(A–E) of the
Act. Therefore, the Department
determines that blends of honey and
rice syrup, regardless of the percentage
of honey they contain, from the PRC are
later-developed merchandise within the
meaning of section 781(d) of the Act,
and are within the scope of the Order.

14, 2012, Re: Anticircumvention Inquiry of the
Antidumping Duty Order on Honey from the
People’s Republic of China.
